Artificial Intelligence and Real Estate; can we automate the industry? - James Dearsley James Dearsley

"Sales and revenue generation are as a result of human interaction; it is that human interaction that is changing" – when asked to keynote speeches on the subject of technology in sales and marketing this is often a quote that gets a lot of heads nodding- it is very pertinent in this discussion too. This is due to the fact that I believe, ultimately, there will be little human interaction in certain real estate transactions in the future; some and future being the key points. Could there really be a possibility that artificial intelligence and real estate could work together? Which elements and when are pivotal to the debate and I hope to cover a few here. Ultimately it is my belief that in the near future the real estate industry could be automated and run algorithmically. However, it is important, from the outset to distinguish between automation and the more challenging theory of machine learning which is a term often used to describe Artificial Intelligence.
